Drift Stone is a house you can relax in straight away, sandy feet and wet dog included. It's built from limestone and timber and set in a native garden in Rye on the Mornington Peninsula, close to the ocean beaches, with a fence all the way round, so the dog is part of the holiday from the moment the car door opens.
THE HOUSE
Mornings start slowly. The big windows let the light in early, and in summer the doors open to the breeze, so the living room and the deck become one long space. The main bedroom is tucked away on its own, with a freestanding bath for the end of a long beach walk, and everything is on one level. The house is happiest with six adults, or a family of up to eight with the kids in the single beds.
OUTSIDE
Dinner moves out to the deck in summer, and once the sun goes, the firepit takes over, with the native garden all around. In winter, the gas fire does the work inside and nobody is in a hurry to go anywhere.
THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
Between the ocean and the bush. Dimmicks Beach is a 16-minute walk: wild and beautiful for walks, but surf beaches rather than swimming beaches, and the national park beaches don't allow dogs, even on a lead. Rye's calm bay beach is a short drive, and Cape Schanck, Sorrento, farmers markets, wineries and cafs are all within easy reach.
FOR THE DOG
Dogs sleep inside with the family, and the garden is fenced all the way round with 6-foot fences. Up to two dogs are welcome, more on request. The leash-free dog beach at Camerons Bight is a 9-minute drive and the Rye Beach off-leash area 10 minutes, for a run and a swim, and a welcome treat is waiting when you arrive.
SUMMER HERE, WINTER HERE
In summer, the doors stay open, sandy paws come and go across the deck, and dinner is outside as the light fades. In winter, it's a blustery walk at Cape Schanck, home to dry off by the fire, and the firepit lit once the rain clears.
GOOD TO KNOW
Garage for 2 cars, plus one more in the driveway behind the gate. A Ring camera at the front door is the only camera. Not available for parties or events.
